Monogram's welcome screen

Although designed to create custom wallpapers for your iPhone, I found another use for Monogram - creating logos. In Monogram, you create a logo using a selection of fonts, badges, and colors. You can adjust the size of your badges or text, and change the background pattern or use your own image. It's not as fancy and as powerful as other logo-making software and apps out there. You wouldn't get the vector image to modify later on, but it can come in handy when you need something simple for immediate consumption or for permanent usage. Besides, some of the most famous logos in the world are simple. It's not the logo itself but what the logo represents.

Pros: Only $0.99. Simple and easy to use.

Cons: The selections for fonts and badges are limited. You can't export the image into a vector format.

Summary: Although light and simplistic, Monogram is a good choice for creating custom wallpapers with your name or your face for vanity. If you need a quick and simple logo for now without the complexities of other logo-makers, Monogram can come to your rescue.

I created a monogram with a photo, cropped it, and used it as the image for my blog hemlocktime.com.
